Everything the Snipping Tool does — capture, crop, annotate — plus the two things it never learned: a real blur for sensitive info, and the screenshot landing on your phone the moment you hit ✓.

Why Drop
The feature no snipping tool has
ShareX, Greenshot and Lightshot are fine tools — and not one of them can put the capture on your phone. Drop does it natively: snip on the PC, it's in your hand.
Real mosaic blur, not a smudge
True pixelation with adjustable strength for names, numbers and anything sensitive — undo-proof, unlike a soft blur someone can reverse.
Everything stays editable
Arrows you can re-aim, boxes you can move, text in six colors — nothing burns in until you confirm.
Nothing to install, no account
Works in the browser on every phone and computer. Scan the QR and you're connected.
Private by design
Encrypted in transit and at rest, and everything self-deletes after 24 hours — or instantly with Delete Now.
FAQ
How do you snip without the Snipping Tool?
Open Drop and hit the scissors (or the global shortcut in the desktop app). You get capture, crop, annotation and blur in one pass — then the result is on your clipboard and your phone simultaneously.
Is Greenshot or ShareX better than the Snipping Tool?
They're both more capable than the built-in tool — ShareX especially is a power-user favorite. But they're Windows-only and end at your desktop. If your screenshots' destination is ever your phone or another person, Drop closes that last mile in one step.
Do I need to install an app or create an account?
No. Drop runs in the browser on both devices. Open the site on your computer, scan the QR with your phone camera, and you're transferring. Apps exist too, but they're optional.
Is it really free?
Yes — transfers up to 3 GB per file are free, with no signup. Files self-delete after 24 hours, which is also why it stays private.
